A Conversation about Affect with Kathy Goodson

This three-hour workshop will provide a space for participants to discuss current working definitions of affect, as well as identify strategies individuals use to determine the affect of speech acts. The presenter will pose thought questions for participants to reflect on how their lived experiences have an impact on understanding the affect of another person. It is the hope that this work will lead to a deeper understanding of decision making regarding the meaning of messages. A variety of intersections will come into play depending on who is in the audience. Intersections could include language, ability, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, race, age, religion, biological sex, region, wealth, education, religion, etc. This session is open to all.
